Request for proposals are invited for Developing the Building Registry (Database) and Implementing the Building Carbon Assessment for Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Date documents can be requested until: 27 May 2024 15:00 Description: GGGI Cambodia is inviting eligible firms/entities to submit their proposals for the following scope of work under Asia Low-Carbon Building Transition (ALCBT) Project: PROJECT BACKGROUND: Total global floor area of buildings is estimated to double by 2060, with over 50% of that increase likely to occur within the next 20 years, mostly in Asia and Africa. GHG emissions from buildings are a key driver for national emissions, with increased cooling demand driving GHG. The projected growth in construction also drives the emissions embodied in construction materials. Embodied carbon accounts for about 10% of global energy related GHG emissions and approximately 20-25% of building life-cycle emissions. Cambodias urban population is growing rapidly i.e. 2.90% in 2022 and it is estimated that one third of the total Cambodias population will reside in urban areas by 2030 . This has contributed to a fast-growing construction sector. The Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction reported that a total of around 5,000 projects were approved for construction in 2020 accounting for 30 million m2 requiring USD 1.7 billion of investment . Recently adopted National Energy Efficiency Policy (NEEP) identifies main energy saving opportunities in cooling, lighting and others by 25% in commercial and public buildings, from 8,552 GWh to 6,431 GWh by 2030. However, policy and capacity gaps prevent the scaling-up of low carbon buildings. The lack of concessional finance for green buildings is another challenge. The ALCBT project seeks to significantly reduce GHG emissions by catalyzing nationwide transitions towards low carbon buildings in Cambodia. Technical, planning, and institutional tools for low carbon buildings will be developed and successfully implemented by key public and private sector stakeholders by the mid of 2028 (Outcome). This result will be achieved through the development of standardized tools and systems for managing carbon emissions from the building sector and piloting them in project countries (Output I); enhancement of capacity for current and future building industry practitioners (Output II); and establishment of financial pathways for low carbon buildings (Output III). Additionally, project knowledge and tools will be accessible online and promoted systematically to stakeholders in project countries, across ASEAN and globally to create market demand, promote replication and scaling up of approach (Output IV). The Cambodian government has committed to enhancing efficiency in the building sector, in the National Energy Efficiency Policy (NEEP), revised Nationally Determined Contributions, the National Cooling Action Plan and the NDC Roadmap for Buildings and Construction 2020-2050. The Long-Term Strategy for Carbon Neutrality 2050 identifies energy efficiency in the building sector as a major source of energy emission reductions. The government has also developed Cambodias Guidelines and Certification for Green Buildings (CamGCGB) and in the process of Building Technical Regulations (BTR) and a Building Energy Code . Government initiatives are supported by a UN project on Sustainable Cooling and the Cambodian Green Building Councils voluntary certification program, CAMEEL. The carbon performance metric and support on sustainable cooling through the ALCBT will inform the implementation of these policies and support monitor and incentivize compliance.
